I’m still kinda shook from last nights show. To be able to take part in this event was really such a blessing. I was surrounded by so many talented and inspiring people. There’s way to many to name but really I need to acknowledge the Heart of the City Music Festival for making this happen. Corine Demas Mike Siek Fay Fey Dunaway (and your partner he was such a good dude) and the rest of the team, volunteers, all of our amazing backstage people Kateo, Erin’s child Kirra ( she was such a pro omg). Our Mc Jodi Calahoo Stonehouse, super awesome photographer Curtis Cameron, the coolest DJ I know Matthew Creeasian, Cindy rivers Comedy!
The food and the kind hearted friends of Nekêm, who not only blessed the food but hunted it, prepared it but gives and gives to the community Vee Point you’re really a human I admire so much.
Our models Eva Brertton, Darrel Brertton jr., Mallory Kimotastim, Kamryn Yawnghwe, Hinauri Nehua-Jackson, Sidney Ahuaiti, Alexis mah, Sheena T Kaine Chantel Willier, Faye Wolfe you really elevated our work.
Of course the super talented and cool humans/designers Aunty Erin’s Custom Regalia (Erin-Nicole Meetos) and Acahkos Designs (Rhonda Johnson) who lit up the runway with your shine! I’m so happy to be considered peers, you’re amazing!
And anyone else who attended, supported, share and sent kind words. Thank you so much.
I really feel so proud to be a part of an amazing art community in Edmonton.
Lastly, I need to give major props to my family who support me. I was a ball of nerves and lived on coffee and ci******es for a month just trying to do my thing. Creating this collection was hard but it’s worth it. I struggled but I’m going to bed with a full heart and a little bit of a new outlook ❤️
Thank you to Curtis Cameron Photography for the photos, they’re so nice!
And to think this whole idea for this show came from two random ladies meeting around a campfire just shootin the s**t 🥰😉
